Hey Kjell! I saw you at Marshall 2 weeks ago for the NASA Student Launch. You're a real inspiration to my rocketry team.
I was curious about injuries in space vs. on Earth. How common are injuries on the ISS, compared to typical Earth injuries like stubbing a toe or getting a paper cut? Is there special equipment specifically for microgravity to deal with bleeding or open wounds?
How will researchers evaluate the possible effects on the study if say Scott got a unique injury on the ISS or Mark was injured on Earth?
